“Love Like That” by Mayer Hawthorne from Man About Town

Track Review:

Oozing in swag, Mayer Hawthorne’s track release “Love Like That” is sure to satisfy. The tunes invoke psychedelic-funk-pop mantras and near discoesque tempo. You want to listen to this track, and yeah…who doesn’t want a love like that – one that engulfs life? Hawthorne exposes the burden of finding the appropriate person, and the lyrics suggest that the current partner is not the idealistic-lover he’s after. As the vocals state, “You never care / How far you go / You just can’t get enough of it / I bite my tongue / I bide my time.” Even the sex is noted as lackluster – despite the miniskirt. He wants to love so he’s waiting for a sign. He wants “Love Like That” to seize him, consume his life, but it seems he’s willing to settle for the lover he has, simmering in resentment.
